Re: [WiX-users] ServiceInstall does nothing in WiX 3.5?
In my experience all services are installed in a stopped state - getting them started it usually the problem! That ServiceControl looks fine from a WiX 3.0 point of view, if ServiceControl/@Start is not optional in 3.5 I would say that is a bug.

Re: [WiX-users] ServiceInstall does nothing in WiX 3.5?
You can add the ServiceInstall element by itself without the ServiceControl.
Add the ServiceInstall in the same component that defines service file. The
service file needs to be the KeyPath. I would recommend not having any
other files in the components, which is good practice anyway. Something
like this should work fine.
Component Id=TheServiceComponent Guid={GUID HERE}
CreateFolder /
File Id=TheServiceExe KeyPath=yes Source=.\thefile.exe /
ServiceInstall Id=TheServiceInstall Name=SomeServiceName
DisplayName=The Service Display Name Start=disabled Type=ownProcess
Account=LocalSystem Interactive=no ErrorControl=normal/
/Component

Re: [WiX-users] ServiceInstall does nothing in WiX 3.5?
I am not sure whether what we faced has any relationship to this. In any case, let me reply with our experience. Maybe it is useful :-) The installer is Install Shield based and not MSI. We were installing Windows Service on 2008 R2 as part of overall install. The services were using path environment variable for locating DLL. The path environment variable was modified directly in the registry during the install session when the services were also being installed. However, the Windows 2008 R2 did not seem to see the path information. This used to work in earlier version of Windows. We ended up having to write a workaround finally. -Original Message- From: Navid Azimi-Garakani [mailto:naz...@microsoft.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2010 1:36 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] ServiceInstall does nothing in WiX 3.5?
